Ok, Bluehost has some neat webmail/email and boxtrapper features. One amazing thing is that BlueHost shared web hosting ( $6.95 per month), allows clients to have up to 2500 email accounts, with each account (ex:admin@affordable-web-hosting-4u.com) having its own secure individual mailbox. In order to send or grab mail you simply access your BlueHost webmail account through the control panel (cPanel 11) or by logging in through any web browser at YourDomain.com/Webmail/
What I actually like about BlueHost mail is that you can configure your webmail for POP3 or IMAP access through mail clients such as Outlook Express. Not quite sure how how to do this? No problem! Bluehost provides easy to follow movie tutorials that makes it simple for anyone to do this. And it you’re still not sure I know from experience that the BlueHost staff will help gladly help you out.

By: tom counts BlueHost ReviewI was excited to write a review about BlueHost, mainly because I've heard a lot of good things about them. With so many web hosts, and so few (good and honest) reviews, it's really hard to tell who's good and who isn't.From looking at the BlueHost web site, the company appears to be a serious and professional web host. A visually appealing web site, clearly posted contact information, lots of awards (from legitimate places), and grammatically correct text on site, all help make BlueHost seem like a formidable web host. A great feature (that seems to be awfully rare) is that BlueHost provides a demo of their control panel (a very slightly customized cPanel using the X skin) that actually works and isn't impossible to find. It's a great feature that allows you to review how cPanel works if you aren't familiar with it. BlueHost Features and PricingThe features BlueHost provides seem pretty standard (nothing lacking) with all of the expected features of
One of the things I like about BlueHost is that online small businesses can easily put eCommerce (shopping carts) on their BlueHost.com sites. There are a number of eCommerce options a BlueHost customer can use. Through the BlueHost control panel (under the partners and promotional heading), Bluehost gives links to several secure ecommerce and shopping cart options like VeriCart, for example. There are also many free shopping cart scripts (like oscommerce) you can download for free off the web. Just do a “google” search for free shopping cart scripts.
BlueHost eCommerce Help
No matter what kind of eCommerce/shopping cart you decide to put on your BlueHost site, BlueHost will able to host it. Are you uncertain how to put shopping carts on your site? I was, and it’s no big deal. The BlueHost staff is kind and knowledgeable, and will help you step by step. Bluehost even provides SSL certificates, which allows secure eCommerce credit card processing which help visito
Last month i started this bluehost speed test section, and posted a speed test result for last time, which shows that the bluehost server speed is taking 0.8 seconds to repond and show up this bluehostreview.org, which is host at bluehost shared hosting $6.95.
This month the bluehost speed test is performed again, and its at random and at anytime which i prefer. Just now i perform the speed test again, and the bluehost server appear to be responding even faster. Which is around 0.6 second to 0.8 seconds. You may refer to previous bluehost speed test at http://www.bluehostreview.org/bluehost/bluehost-speed-test/

Are you looking for cheap domain name registration? BlueHost offers cheap domain name registrations to the tune of $10 dollars per domain name. Of course, if you sign up for a BlueHost affordable web hosting account (for as low as $6.95 per month) you get a FREE domain forever.
Cheap Domain Name Registration Tips
Of course you, can find places other than BlueHost that offer cheap domain name registrations less the ten bucks a pop. But may I offer some advice on cheap domain name registrations? Please don’t let price be the only guiding factor on where you to register a domain name. Fact is, although there are many affordable web hosting companies that offer cheap domain name registrations, not all are reliable web hosting services. Here are some things some things to consider when looking for a cheap domain name registration:
Make sure you research the company where you are registering your cheap domain name. Do a “google search” of the company with “che
What I really love about BlueHost is that in the BlueHost version of cPanel, they allow unlimited FTP. What this means is that you can, upload as many files at one time that you wish from your hard drive on your PC to your site on the BlueHost server.
How to Use BlueHost Unlimited FTP
FTP is the only way to upload your files to the BlueHost server, so if you are new building websites, you should get acquainted with the process. Using BlueHost unlimited FTP makes it real simple, even fun! Here’s what you need to do:
Login in to your Bluehost control panel
Go down to “files” and click on “unlimited FTP.” A Java applet will open up with and a split screen will appear. On the left will be the files from your PC; on the left will be the files on your server.
Browse to the file(s) you want to upload to your site via the BlueHost server. Got them? Good! Now on to the fun part.
Using the BlueHost “drag and drop” feature, simply transfer as many file
Okay, I was using BlueHost for my one of my sites and was messing around with PHP code trying to modify one of my Wordpress Plugins? Well I did something real bad and lost my entire site! But thank God the BlueHost cPanel has a backup feature that allowed me to get back my site to exactly the way it was. that’s one great reason to go with BlueHost web hosting.
How to Use the BlueHost Back Up Feature
The BlueHost backup system will fully backup and restore your site including all content, email settings and webmail settings. In order to access this BlueHost “safety net”, enter BlueHost cPanel and click on BackUps.
Once you click on Backups in the Bluehost control panel, you have your choice to backup your site , daily, weekly or monthly. I choose to backup my site daily just in case I experience another crash after doing something stupid. The bottomline here: If you use BlueHost, you really don’t have to worry about losing your site to some mistake.

Yes, it’s true. Bluehost web hosting offers unlimited domains for those signing up to a Bluehost shared hosting package of 1 year or more. What does Bluehost mean by this? Simply that you can add on new domains, not just Bluehost subdomains, (ex: YourName.com, MyName.com) for as much as your Bluehost shared web space will allow. Oh yeah, and did I mention that Bluehost will will also throw in one FREE domain forever on their 12 month and above contracts? considering that doamin names come pretty cheap (Bluehost charges $10 per domain registration) it may not seem like any big deal, but hey, every little bit helps.
BlueHost Domain Manager
You can save a dollar or two somewhere else on a domain price (like GoDaddy), but you need to be careful where you purchase a domain. Why? Because some web hosting providers, once you register a domain with them, will not let you migrate to another server. Fortunately, I never had that problem with Bluehost. For example, when one of my sites ou
This bluehost review blog was hosted with bluehost.com since march 2007, and its the sixth months review. September 2007 uptime is 99.916%. Which is a 99.9% uptime service. Its consider to be quit good, considering its in a shared web hosting environment.
For the bluehost speed test, over the month, the average loading speed is 0.249 seconds in average. That is a really fast server. And constantly well performed.
Recently i upgraded the uptime monitoring service and using the 5 minutes check interval. The bluehost server will be checked every 5 minutes, instead of 30 minutes interval. This will give more accurate readings and stat. Below are the bluehost uptime and bluehost down time report for september 2007:
The graph is too long and can’t fit whole computer screen, so i crop it to 26th september. The remaining are 100% as well.

At early of this year, bluehost.com was starting to offering both php version 4 and php version 5, at your choice. By default, the sign up will be locating you at the php4 server box. As most the script in market is supporting this version 4 script. However, if you need to have php5 on bluehost server, then you need to contact bluehost support through email or through live chat or give them a phone call.
As usual, bluehost support will need to verify your account, and after that will migrate your account to the server with php5. As this involve server and IP changed, your website will be down for 1-4 hours. And best news is that there is no extra charge. Bluehost will migrate your site to php 5 free of charge.
I just checked my bluehost cpanel account, and i am still at the php version 4.4.6 . That is a php 4 apache server running version 1.3.37. And at this point, i not having script that require php5 to run, so there is no future planning to move over to version 5. If you need it,

Bluehost is using quad core processor for their server, and its equal as 4 running processor. Thats the reason making the server running fast and this bluehost hosted site loaded fast. I did a bluehost speed test again,
Bluehost hosting is a fast growing hosting company, and currently with more than 315,000 domains hosted. I joined bluehost on March 2007, and also joined their community forum http://www.bluehostforum.com/. The bluehost forum is now joined by more than 18,000 members.

This four long monts, i had been reviewing bluehost hosting in most details, and explore deep into their hosting service and also cpanel control panel. I got myself sign up blue host, and trying to experience this hosting myself, and so i can write a true review about bluehost.
I had a great time with bluehost, and this bluehostreview.org is running fine and with great uptime. I am happy with it, and had recommended it to few of my IT friends. They like it as well. Especially the unlimited number of websites hosting with bluehost $6.95 plan. Ya, i having few websites running in this bluehost plan as well.

Bluehost hosting is started to implementing the fastcgi into their hosting server. Pass few days, i notice the bluehost server that i am using, is updated with the fastcgi as well. I am pretty new to fastcgi thing and have to do some homework here to find out more about it, and how to utilise it.
From bluehost cpanel , under web server config menu, you will find “fastcgi acceleration”. And this will bring you to the fastcgi activation or deactivation page as following:
“FastCGI for PHP makes all your PHP applications run through mod_fastcgi instead of mod_phpsusexec. This eliminates the overhead of loading the PHP interpretor on every hit. Since it is always in memory ready for the next hit, the responses will be generated faster. NO MODIFICATIONS to your existing PHP applications will be performed so you can easily enable and disable it at will.”
And what wiki said about fastcgi? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FastCGI

Today i drop by google, and search the internet for something related to bluehost, or anything related to bluehost rewards program or bluehost coupons or bluehost affiliate related thing. I come to some finding that i would like to write it here and share it to all of you that might consider to sign up bluehost hosting someday.
Fact that i found are as following:
Bluehost coupon doesn’t exist.
I browse through more than 10 websites posting bluehost coupons available here. And browse whole websites and found nothing about bluehost coupons. Indeed, there is no bluehost coupons being release, and no coupon code request when you fill in the bluehost sign up form. Found out are those bluehost affiliate website, publishing untrue statement about availability of bluehost coupons, and hopefully you drop at their websites and they get granted with sales commission.
Bluehost Affiliate pays $65 per sign up.

A three months old website are now top ranked number 3rd in yahoo search engine for the single keyword “bluehost”.

It had been the third month this bluehost reviews blog had been running at bluehost’s server. And usually what i do is stored a copy at local PC, and download backup the mysql database through the phpmysql export interface. This is bit tedious, and require lots manual “select and backup” work almost every single week.
To make the backup routine easier, i have to go for bluehost system tools > backup utility. This features come with cpanel, and you can use this to fully backup your site content, cpanel setting, emails settings and also emails in your webmail. Everything will be packed and you can stored a copy at server, or download it to local pc. This full system backup is useful when your computer crashes etc.
Above is the screenshot of the bluehost system backup. And today what i want to do is just to download a backup copy of necessary files. From “select a system backup to download:”.. i choose daily… After clicking this, it will prompt me
As in previous posting, i wrote some introduction to SSH and how to get connected to blue host server. This tutorial continue with, how to setup the ssh connection, and what you need to do to get started.
Login to your bluehost cpanel.. version 10. Scroll the way down to “system tool”.. and click the “SSH/shell access”. This will bring you to the telnet and secure ssh page.
“For security reasons, shell access is not enabled by default. In order to activate shell access on your account, you will need to fax or mail a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other photo id to customer service. You can fax it to +1 (801) 765-1992 or you can submit your scanned photo ID directly to our helpdesk in the following form”
That is exactly what you need to do, to get approval to use the SSH connection. Not only bluehost, other hoster is doing the same. No anonymous user is allow to ssh or telnet to server and do what ever they want. Security come f
If you need to remotely log into bluehost hosting server, probably you need to use SSH (Secure Shell) connection. SSH allows secure file transfer and remote logins over the internet. Your connection via SSH is encrypted allowing the secure connection. In this section you can manage your SSH keys to allow automation when logging in via SSH. Using public key authentication is an alternative to password authentication. Since the private key must be held to authenticate, it is virtually impossible to brute force.
Before you setup the ssh, make sure you have the ssh client progam ready. I would be recommending PuTTY, a telnet and ssh client program. Which have both windows and linux version available for free download. You can get the ssh client at this link: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
The SSH command is linux based. An example is:
pico : friendly, easy to use file editor
pico /home/burst/public_html/index.html : edit the index page for the user&rs
When I was stationed in Iraq, I began an email correspondence with a friend from back home. The emails consisted mostly of political arguments and, as soldiers never talk about politics, I found it to be a fun way to sate my thirst for political discussion. When I got back home, some friends joined in the email conversation. At one time, I think we would receive and answer about 20 emails a day. I remember that time fondly.
Because of the unmanageable email traffic and the quality of thought in the posts, I thought it would be best to move our discussions to the web (this was before I started blogging).
Eventually, A friend of mine started a free bulletin board (which eventually became Magnasquids on a service called Bravenet. I loved the conversations, but the software from Bravenet su**** (was really bad). The bulletin board couldn't divide the posts by subject and my fingers tired because of the constant need to click on advertising.
I took the initiative to pay for the advanc
I been research a little bit on how to setup ecommerce online store on bluehost. Previously i had experience setup online payment through paypal payment processing, and as well to worldpay payment processing. There is wide variety of payment processor that you can choose from, and each of them require certain thing that you need to apply to.
Paypal payment processing
Not require SSL. Accept paypal and credit card through paypal. Only need to setup paypal account, verify your account using credit card or banking account(UK and US user). Then upgrade your account to permier account or merchant account. From paypal account, you can use the merchant tool provided to create “code” for item you selling. Easy setup for subscription service for customer as well. Very low processing fee per transaction.
2checkout payment processing
Not require SSL. A $45 one time setup fee. Accept credit card payment. A friendly support team, and reply my enquiry promptly. Very low processing fee p
Time pass by so fast, and its already more than two month, www.bluehostreview.org hosted at Bluehost.com hosting. This $6.95 hosting plan is definately worth it, come with lots of features, cpanel, 300Gb webspace, fast server, good support team with live chat.

About bluehost cpanel and fantastico is very updated, feature rich, and bugs free. No problem using it at all. I having great time exploring it. And lately customizing the .htaccess to gain more redirection features.

What i could say is that i highly recommend

If your Bluehost email is not supporting unicode character like: chinese, arabic, japanese, or indian characters. But showing unreadable symbols and sign, then its caused by charset problem at the php.ini file. You can fix this problem yourself.
FTP login to your server and locate the php.ini file. Edit the php.ini using notepad… and add in these lines.
[mbstring]
mbstring.language = Neutral
mbstring.internal_encoding = UTF-8
mbstring.http_input = UTF-8
mbstring.http_output = UTF-8
mbstring.encoding_translation = On
mbstring.detect_order = auto
mbstring.substitute_character = long;
mbstring.func_overload = 1
By this, your php email will now support unicode. Basically this method will fix most of the charset problem. However, if this don’t solve it, do contact bluehost support for assistant.
